Don't give up on a vaginal birth if you want one.
DH's cousin & a friend of mine both had twins 5 weeks apart. Both were told they'd e having a ceaser. Like it or not.
My friends twins were all over the place. Every time I saw her from about 26 weeks they had a rough estimate of when the ceaser would be. It started at 32 weeks.
I think they were trying to beat labour.
They were going to send her to Sydney to have it done. One twin was head down, but the other was breech.
I told her to refuse. It was too early & that is no a good enough reason for a ceaser IMO!
Next it was 34 weeks. The twins kept switching position. Each check up the other one was head down.
BUT, at 37 weeks both were head down & ready to go.
They were born at 37+4.
Being transverse with twins might be harder to get them to change possy's since they both have to move, but maybe if you do some of the things to ry & convince them to move they will.
Obviously its your choice, but if you do want a vaginal birth there is no reasn not to try. There's still a good chance you will end up with a ceaser, but it's worth trying.
Sorry to hear those two have been giving you grief this weekend! Just wanted to let you know i am finding the same thing if i get a lot of braxton hicks, or if she pushes down to much and i get those zingy cramps in my cervix that my CM turns into a clag glue type consistency for a little while.
Good luck hun and i hope those two stay put a while longer!
Thanks Shannon. The clag glue, is exactly the type of consistency. Ouchie for you aswell. I hope your little bubs stay put a bit longer too.
bjrose-Thanks for the encouragement regarding a vbac. It was the babies giving me no option, not the drs. I have a really understanding OB, but there are also other reasons why it is not the best option for me. I have researched a lot and for a while I was undecided but am now content with having a c/s and feel that it is the best option for me.
